First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Call a physician immediately. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration.

Skin contact

After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Immediate medical treatment required because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure.

Symptoms: corrosive injuries, Corrosion

Eye contact

In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist. Protect uninjured eye.

Symptoms: Risk of serious damage to eyes, Risk of blindness

Ingestion

Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of water.

Symptoms: danger of perforation of the esophagus and the stomach (strong corrosive effects), Vomiting, Gastric perforation

Immediate Medical Attention

Call a physician immediately. Immediate medical treatment required because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure. consult an ophthalmologist. In case of accident or unwellness, seek medical advice immediately (show directions for use or safety data sheet if possible).

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

co-ordinate firefighting measures to the fire surroundings! water, foam, alcohol resistant foam, dry extinguishing powder, ABC-powder

Unsuitable media

water jet

Specific hazards

Combustible. Deposited combustible dust has considerable explosion potential. Vapours are heavier than air, spread along floors and form explosive mixtures with air.

Instructions

Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.

Firefighter Protection

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear full chemical protective clothing.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Do not breathe dust.

Environmental

Keep away from drains, surface and ground water. Retain contaminated washing water and dispose of it.

Cleanup methods

Take up mechanically.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Handle and open container with care. Avoid exposure. Avoid dust formation. Clear contaminated areas thoroughly.

Storage

Store in a dry place. Store contents under inert gas. Store locked up.

Hygiene

When using do not eat or drink. Thorough skin-cleansing after handling the product.

Fire prevention

Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Hands

Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves. The times are approximate values from measurements at 22 °C and permanent contact. Increased temperatures due to heated substances, body heat etc. and a reduction of the effective layer thickness by stretching can lead to a considerable reduction of the breakthrough time. If in doubt, contact manufacturer. At an approx. 1.5 times larger / smaller layer thickness, the respective breakthrough time is doubled / halved. The data apply only to the pure substance. When transferred to substance mixtures, they may only be considered as a guide.

Eyes

Use safety goggle with side protection. Wear face protection.

Respiratory

Respiratory protection necessary at: Dust formation. Particulate filter device (EN 143). P3 (filters at least 99,95 % of airborne particles, colour code: White).

Skin/Body

Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended.

Environmental

Keep away from drains, surface and ground water.
